Supergirl

Synopsis

Based on Tom King's acclaimed comic book miniseries Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, this epic sci-fi adventure follows Kara Zor-El, Superman's cousin, who finds herself seeking a sense of purpose in a galaxy that seems to have left her behind. Raised on a surviving chunk of the destroyed planet Krypton and forced to witness the tragic demise of everyone around her, Kara's upbringing was far harsher than her famous cousin's. Her life takes a dramatic turn when she is approached by Ruthye, a young alien girl determined to seek vengeance against the ruthless intergalactic criminals who murdered her father. Alongside her loyal canine companion, Krypto the Superdog, Kara embarks on a perilous cosmic journey across space, confronting deadly mercenaries, treacherous environments, and her own deep-seated trauma. Directed by Craig Gillespie, this foundational chapter in the new DC Universe showcases a harsher, more battle-hardened version of the iconic heroine as she learns what it truly means to be a beacon of hope.
